Uncle_Buck Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Saw a guy sporting a cool T-shirt at Blacksburg. On the front was a small chest logo: GTO in larger font, below in smaller font was Tri-Power. On the back was a good size image of a Pontiac Tri-Power setup. Just above it was the words: These are all the carbs I'm counting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVE A Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 I had one given to me after I bought my 10th Crosley. It says, "MY WIFE SAYS IF I BUY ONE MORE CROSEY, SHE'S GOING TO LEAVE ME.....I'M SURE GONNA MISS HER" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 For a while I was selling, selling and selling some more on ebay (antique auto parts). My mom sent me a t-shirt that says, "I didn't lose my mind, I sold it on ebay". She may have been correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stock_steve Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 (edited) Quite politically-incorrect lettering on a t-shirt I saw a younger 20-something-type guy wearing at a car show, back some time in the early '80s:DAMMDrunks Against Mad Mothers Edited August 18, 2010 by stock_steve correct a spelling mistake (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 I remember the very last tag line from a Ford Truck t.v. commercial. Only saw the commercial once:... besides, who wants a truck that drives like a rock?I've never been a part of "my car brand is better than yours" (except for Packard, maybe), but that line I thought was very creative and funny.

Dave@Moon Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 While were beating the "Lucas" dead horse, how about this one:"All parts falling off this car are of the finest English workmanship."There are a thousand variations of this one, but they all say the same thing: "The Lucas Switch: Dim, Flicker, Off". I still say it should read "Dim, Flicker, Short" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave@Moon Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 ....but my very favorite t-shirt, that I've saved for over 20 years now, reads thus:Under a large image of the Triumph "laurel wreath" logo--"Life's too short to be driving Chevys!"===========================That ought to p.o. a few people! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAVES89 Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 In my teens I worked in a hardware store that sold McCulloch chainsaws. They came out with a tee shirt that had a beaver holding a chain saw. The caption read "I got beaver fever" 20 years later I am swimming in a river and come down with an intestional infection. Laymans term for the infection? Beaver Fever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Bollman Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 My favorite T says, "Still plays with cars!"The Crosley version I saw at our Nationals was "Still plays with little cars!" with a Crosley pictured.One that one of our Maine members made up a bunch of T shirts with "Speed Kills, Drive a Crosley Live Forever". I liked it so much I had it put on the back of one of my denim shirts, since I don't where T shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
